The Seattle Art Museum's Art Deco building stands in Volunteer Park, surrounded by landscaped gardens, a pond, and winding paths. The museum opened in the park in 1933, giving Seattle a dedicated art museum on Capitol Hill; the building later became the Seattle Asian Art Museum. Volunteer Park was already an established public park, and the museum's grounds were landscaped as part of its setting.
